I 24 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 6: know we're gonna be better after this weekend as a 25 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 6: football team. But you know, we've done all the work. 26 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 6: I mean, we prepared, we put long hours in. The 27 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 6: scouts have done a great job. James has been amazing 28 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 6: leading our coaching staff, led by Liam getting in and 29 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 6: doing it together. So it's like at this point now 30 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 6: it's kind of you just kind of wait, and you know, 31 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 6: obviously we pick early, so less there's fewer variables. 32 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 5: To worry about. 33 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 6: But then we're gonna get into you know, you're get 34 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 6: in the rounds two through seven. 35 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 5: You're at the mercy of what happens a little bit 36 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 5: before you. 37 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,040 Speaker 6: So you gotta you know, you have a plan, but 38 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 6: you got to be ready to pivot and kind of 39 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 6: be flexible. 40 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 7: So you're saying, there's less variable, so you're saying you're 41 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 7: not trading. 42 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 5: Back as we speak right now. 43 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 4: You know, we'll see. 44 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 7: All right. So the whole reason we brought you in here, 45 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 7: it's a that's a good cacking, that's a good catch. 46 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 5: A good player. Yeah, I think you know he'll be 47 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 5: a good football player. Listen, I think you know. 48 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 6: You look at the team and what we've done in 49 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 6: free agency was purposeful. 50 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 5: One. 51 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 6: We wanted to raise the floor, but we also wanted 52 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 6: to fill some gaps with guys who we were confident 53 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 6: could come in and start day one and so that 54 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 6: we weren't going to be forced to do anything when 55 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 6: we got into the into the draft. So because of that, 56 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 6: we feel really comfortable with our options. We've obviously targeted 57 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 6: a handful of players each round, because we picked five today, 58 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 6: and you know, as far as trading down, that's going 59 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 6: to be, you know, continuing to evolve as you know, 60 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 6: as we have conversations and kind of see what's available. 61 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 6: It has to be the right You don't just trade 62 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 6: down to trade down. You have to have a couple 63 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 6: of things, want a willing partner them. The compensation has 64 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 6: to make sense for us, and then we want to 65 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 6: make sure there's a guy we like in the first 66 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 6: round wherever we land, and so we'll evaluate everything, but 67 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 6: we feel pretty comfortable where we're at right now. 68 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 7: What has it been like to uh, to really understand 69 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 7: from really an intimate perspective of what intangibly rich really means. 70 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 6: Well, you know, Jeff, you and I watch tape all 71 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,839 Speaker 6: the time, and in the past you probably actually watched 72 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 6: a little bit more than me getting ready for the draft. 73 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 6: But we'd watch tape and all you have to go 74 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 6: by is what's on film, because we don't we're not 75 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 6: back when we're doing radio and when I was doing 76 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 6: you guys do. It's not like you're diving into the 77 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 6: character and the background information. We don't have that information 78 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 6: available to us. But if you think back Jeff to 79 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 6: when we played, it wasn't always the biggest, strongest, fastest 80 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 6: guys who were the best football players. There's more than 81 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 6: just physical attributes. It's the competitive nature of the individual. 82 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 6: It's the football instincts. It's the you know, the love 83 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 6: of the game like love and ball, you know, all 84 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 6: these things going into it's how they learn intelligence. They're intelligence. 85 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 6: How much can they comprehend? How do they process information? 86 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 6: So these are all kind of what you'd say in 87 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 6: you know, watching film, you can evaluate some of that stuff. 88 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 6: You can see their play demeanor, if a guy's finishing 89 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 6: blox or finishing plays or chasing and pursuing you can 90 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 6: see that competitiveness there, but then it's taught. You know, 91 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 6: our scouts have done a great job they always have 92 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 6: of talking to the coaches, the strength coach, the equipment coach. 93 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 6: They're high school coaches who they're with, So that's kind 94 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 6: of what builds that overall profile. And ultimately we just 95 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 6: want good football players. 96 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: Tell me WASSELLI with us? 97 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 3: It's Jaguars Happy are on tentan Exaljaguars dot Com and 98 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 3: Jaguars YouTube closing in on Round. 99 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 8: One of the NFL Draft. 100 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 4: How do you know beyond the tape if a guy 101 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 4: loves ball? Well, how do you find that out? 102 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 3: Especially at this day and age with college and the 103 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 3: nil and things, the landscape has changed for prospects. 104 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 6: It's much more difficult, There's no doubt about it, because 105 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 6: you can't just go to the one university. 106 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 5: When Jeff and I played, I mean he went to Virginia. 107 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 6: I went to USC So it was a single place 108 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 6: the scouts can go to and say, tell me about 109 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 6: this individual. What's his work ethic? Like, what are that 110 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 6: in the weight room? How do they practice? And so 111 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 6: these are all kind of clues you can kind of 112 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 6: understand what the competitive nature of the individual is. It's 113 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 6: the same thing today, but now it's multiple colleges, it's 114 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 6: multiple phone calls, multiple touch points, and sometimes you got 115 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 6: to be careful because you might hear one thing about 116 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 6: a guy at his first school. He transfers and he's 117 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 6: only with this other school for one season, a very 118 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 6: short window, and they have glowing reviews. So is that 119 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 6: really who he is, right or is he putting on 120 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 6: an app act because it's a short window and he's 121 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 6: auditioning for a job. I mean, these are all the 122 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 6: nuances that we go through and try to do the best 123 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 6: we can to understand who the individual is now. 124 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 7: In the past, you would always see coaches and players 125 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 7: that were at one program. The coaches are trying to 126 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 7: get those players drafted as high as they possibly can 127 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 7: because it's it's it further sells the program that they're 128 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 7: trying to build. Yeah, I would think that having a 129 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 7: player having experience at a couple different places, you probably 130 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 7: get a little bit more of an honest perspective when you. 131 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 6: Get a whole rounded Yeah, And Jeffy, it's a great point. 132 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 6: I mean, we want to hear from that coaches. There's 133 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 6: no doubt about that. But yes, I also have to 134 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 6: be realistic. These guys are selling the program to the 135 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 6: next recruits coming and the last thing you want to 136 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 6: do as a head coach is bad mouth. 137 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 5: You're not gonna do one. 138 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 6: Of your players because the next guy's coming up. They 139 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 6: hear about that, and you know that's not well and 140 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 6: it does. 141 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 7: Get that player drafted. The higher you get to put 142 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 7: your drafted, the better exposure your program gets. 143 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 6: And so and anyone who's been football also understands. Go 144 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 6: talk to the trainers, Go talk to the wait coach, 145 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 6: Go talk to the equipment coach, Talk to the support 146 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 6: staff that spend a lot of time with. 147 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 7: Us as players, and they'll give you. 148 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 5: They'll give you, they'll give you a pretty good view 149 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 5: of who the individual is. 150 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 7: I would be in contact with every equipment staff about 151 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 7: that player that I was thinking about. Sure they know 152 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 7: all the intimate details I've said players, no doubt about that. 153 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, JP Shatter, Jeff Lago and Tony WASSELLI with us 154 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 3: on Jaguars Happy Hour. Give us your behind the scenes 155 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 3: as much as you can. Look at James Gladstone in 156 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 3: the process he's put together to get to this point. 157 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 4: How impressive. 158 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 3: Is it what stands out the most about his efficiency, 159 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 3: his mindset, his his operation as a whole. 160 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 6: I'll just give you my perspective in all kind of 161 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 6: three areas. I was convicted that he was the right 162 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 6: choice when we hired him right before the combine, more 163 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 6: convicted now after working with him. His communication ability is 164 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 6: uncanny of how he can take in a lot of 165 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 6: information from a lot of different sources and kind of 166 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 6: correlate and synthesize all that information and communicate it to 167 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 6: the right stakeholders and make decisions from it. And then 168 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 6: the last thing, he is a he's a killer. I mean, 169 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 6: don't underestimate Jane Gladstone. I mean, he is very good 170 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 6: at what he does. He's very focused, understands it, and 171 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 6: throughout the process has done a great job of jumping 172 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 6: into the middle of the situation in bringing everyone together 173 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 6: to make sure he's getting all the right information that 174 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:44,199 Speaker 6: we can get to the right decision. 175 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 7: A Number two. You we brought up the communicator. It's 176 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 7: unreadied just I mean, our opportunity that we get obviously 177 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 7: is not as wide as the perspective that you get. 178 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 7: But listening to him talk, it's impressive. And what I 179 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 7: love here is that you refer to him as a killer, 180 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 7: because look, the reality is, in that line of work, 181 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 7: you've got to be confident, uh and unwavering and your 182 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 7: commitment to your beliefs and an understanding of players that 183 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 7: you're gonna be picking and if you're if you're not, 184 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 7: then you're just gonna get beat up and tossed aside 185 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 7: with and get eaten up. 186 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, And just to go step further what I mean 187 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 6: by killer because people are like, what do you mean 188 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 6: he's GM. It's not like he's out there on the 189 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 6: fields eating. 190 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 5: Guys up or anything. I'm not talking about the physical 191 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 5: side of it. 192 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 6: He he's very good at his job and and part 193 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 6: of that. And this is what we did when we 194 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 6: went through the interview process. And I'm glad it's worked out. 195 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 6: And we're still in the early stages, so we got 196 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 6: a long way to go. We'll hit the adversity and 197 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 6: I think we'll even see it more at that time. 198 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 6: But I wanted to make sure and so did Liam, 199 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 6: that we got that the individual there's gonna be the 200 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 6: GM that was gonna partner with us. Because Liam and 201 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 6: I talked about this a lot, no ego, not ego driven, 202 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 6: and not a personal hidden agenda, because those two things 203 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 6: kill an organization. And when I say there is none 204 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 6: of that, and there's a there's a lot of humility 205 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 6: combined with that attitude that he's just fearless. He is 206 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 6: not afraid to make tough decisions, in big decisions. And 207 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 6: that's what I say to Killer, He's unwavering and so 208 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 6: and then the last thing that I enjoy because we 209 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 6: have to come to work here and lead him the draft. 210 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 6: It's long hours. My favorite part about this job outside 211 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 6: of I got to work at this organization and do football. 212 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 6: I get to work with two really good dudes like 213 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 6: Liam and James as good dudes at the end of 214 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 6: the day. And Jeff knows it's being a locker room. 215 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 6: You want the locker room filled with a bunch of 216 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 6: good dudes because then you'll figure it out. As long 217 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 6: as they're competitive, love ball and they're good dudes, you 218 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 6: can get through about anything. And that's been probably the 219 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 6: most fun of the process. 220 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 7: And you can't build culture. She got good dudes doing. 221 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 6: It right, because you think about culture, culture is all 222 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 6: that really is at the end of the day, and 223 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 6: we use different words, and those are important. The words 224 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 6: are important. It's what we live out every day in 225 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 6: the building. And it starts with leadership. What is leadership 226 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 6: living every day because that gets filtered through the whole 227 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 6: building and then that's just who we are. And so 228 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 6: that's what we're trying to build. And we've had you know, 229 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 6: free agency, we got the draft. We were on the 230 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 6: field this week. That was fun with the voluntary uh. 231 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 5: Mini camp Vetri Mini caamp. 232 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 6: Great see the guys out there competing and uh, it's 233 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 6: one step at a time. But ultimately, you guys know this, 234 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 6: none of us are gonna be judged until September. 235 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll see. 236 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 3: You'll find out when the balls of the balls of 237 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 3: the t week one exactly right there. This could be 238 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 3: obviously a youth movement for the Jaguars, right you know, 239 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 3: ten draft picks, there's a lot of room on this 240 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 3: roster right now, Tony. 241 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 6: We have fifty nine signed players. That is the least 242 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 6: in the NFL. I'll put it this way. During Vetrian 243 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 6: mini camp, we had scouts and coaches playing scout team. 244 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 5: What were you playing? No, no, no, no, you. 245 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 6: Have to actually be able to run James, Yeah, and 246 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 6: we are wildly comfortable with that. We're gonna get ten 247 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 6: draft picks over the next three days. We're gonna go 248 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 6: target and try to get approximately twenty undrafted free agents, 249 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 6: and then we'll see if we fill out the rest 250 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 6: of the spots with a couple other veteran free agents 251 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 6: that are still out there. But you're gonna have training 252 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 6: camp when we're all sitting watching together as Liam and 253 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 6: our players and our coaching staff are out there working, 254 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 6: you were going to see a competitive environment because jobs 255 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 6: are wide open. Come grab one, and we're gonna have 256 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 6: a bunch of young guys who are hungry and fighting 257 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 6: for a spot on the roster. 258 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 7: You bring up the roster composition of the number right 259 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 7: now fifty nine. A lot of people, I think don't 260 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 7: understand as a lot of times you kind of really 261 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 7: have two. Well, there's multiple tiers of free agency, but 262 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 7: you have a second phase of free agency, which typically 263 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 7: happens after the draft and teams wait to see what 264 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 7: they draft to there for to see what they need 265 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,839 Speaker 7: to plug in. I'm sure that's the approach there was. 266 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 5: We'll look at things. We have some good ideas. 267 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 6: I mean, well, we have a like I said at 268 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 6: the beginning, we have a plan of what we're gonna target, 269 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 6: we're gonna go after in each round. 270 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 5: But let's say we miss. 271 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 6: Let's say we don't get some of the guys we 272 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 6: want a certain positions. Obviously, we still there's a number 273 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 6: of still good players out there that have played in 274 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 6: starting games in this league, and we'll do what we 275 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 6: need to round out the roster. But expect a lot 276 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 6: of young guys running around here come two weeks from 277 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 6: now on working meeting camps there. 278 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 7: All right, So, so big question here. I think every 279 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 7: NFL team, for the most part that has has been 280 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 7: asked us, so is there an interest in Aaron Rodgers. 281 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 5: Less than zero Western zero? 282 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 3: I had to ask you that you heard it here 283 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 3: first you can I can confidently say we are not 284 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 3: going down that path. 285 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 5: Not going down that path. 286 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:07,079 Speaker 9: We are. 287 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 6: We feel pretty good about our quarterback, and it was 288 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 6: good to see him out there throwing shoulders, coming along 289 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 6: good his left shoulder, the rehab, he's been working his 290 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 6: tail off and and we're excited about what he can do. 291 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 7: How about the the I guess how do you say this? 292 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 7: The immersion and the new offense. I mean, it's got 293 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 7: to be a challenge. I mean, it's a system three 294 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 7: for him. And look, he's a bright guy, but how 295 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 7: was that going. 296 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 6: Well, he's very bright and he's a very hard worker, 297 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 6: and so that combination he'll be fine and great. Yudinsky, 298 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 6: offensive corner is doing a great job, and we have 299 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 6: a really good staff. And I think one of the 300 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 6: smart things several smart things that Liam did when he 301 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 6: built the staff, he brought guys in here that he 302 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 6: did either worked with or had worked in the same system, 303 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 6: with the same language that he had. So it was 304 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 6: is it we're onboarding a whole offensive staff and our quarterback. 305 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 6: And then we brought in Nick Mullens who comes from 306 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 6: the system, Johnny Wolford who was in Tampa out of 307 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 6: that system, and at the RAMS out of that system. 308 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 5: And so what we've purposely. 309 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 6: Done is surrounded Trevor with a lot of guys who 310 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 6: understand to accelerate that that combined with his work ethic 311 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 6: and his intelligence, I'm not worried about it at all. 312 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 3: Good Tony Boselli, Executive vice president Football Operations, Welcome back 313 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 3: to TV Land. 314 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's good to be back on how's it been going?

But all of 379 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 11: a sudden, there's just been this deluge of folks that 380 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 11: come through with either something to say or maybe just 381 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 11: sort of a threatening approach.

Of all places, 388 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 7: where is everybody staying in Green Bay? I don't know 389 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 7: if there's enough hotel rooms to fit everybody. Are they 390 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 7: reunning every house out in Green Bay?

They had to 394 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 11: come up with alternative plans, right, so we brought in 395 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 11: cruise ships. 396 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 2: They haven't quite done that. 397 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,239 Speaker 11: I'm told that there are a lot of folks that 398 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 11: jumped onto Airbnb. We're staying in Appleton, which is about 399 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 11: half an hour from here. There's a lot of folks 400 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 11: who are staying north up towards Michigan, and plenty more 401 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 11: that are driving in from Milwaukee. It doesn't have the 402 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 11: infrastructure and so they're not expecting the turnout like they 403 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 11: had in Detroit last year. There was upwards of seven 404 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 11: hundred and fifty thousand people who attended the three days 405 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 11: of the draft at Cadillac Square in Detroit. They're expecting 406 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 11: about two hundred and fifty thousand. It's just it's narrow, 407 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 11: there's not a lot of places to park. It's they're 408 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 11: doing their best and they've got this whole title town 409 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 11: thing going, so that's pretty good. 410 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 3: Brian Sexson joining us from just outside lambeau Field in 411 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 3: Green Bay, Wisconsin.

Has anybody talked to the jaguars? And of course, 421 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 11: you know, we knew that they weren't doing their thirty 422 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 11: visit routine this year, but I was just curious if 423 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:15,959 Speaker 11: in any way, shape or form he had had made contact. 424 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 2: He said no. 425 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 11: I asked Ashton Genty about being born in Jacksonville and 426 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 11: the potential of coming home, and he smiled and said, 427 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 11: duvall he knew about the history with Fred and the 428 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 11: comparisons to Maurice Jones. Drew Travis Hunter was great. I 429 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 11: asked him point blank, what position are you playing? He 430 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 11: said both. I said, you're holding on to that? He goes, 431 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 11: why shouldn't I? And Mason Graham was quiet. You know what, 432 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 11: lots of two and three word answers, but logs. He 433 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 11: had the biggest forearms. I mean, he made Tyson Alu 434 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,239 Speaker 11: Alu look small with his just the dimension from his 435 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 11: elbow to his wrist so strong, powerful fit that he 436 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 11: was a heavyweight wrestling champion in the state of California. 437 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 11: They were all interesting, all good guys, which is what 438 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 11: everyone's looking for. 439 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 2: They're looking for good guys. I heard Tony on with you. 440 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 11: They're looking for good dudes in the locker room, and 441 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 11: all of those guys were good dudes. 442 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think Mason Graham, I mean, you're talking about 443 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 7: the intangibles are way way, way high. But I don't 444 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 7: know if there's any intangibles that are higher than with 445 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 7: Travis Hunter Bryan. I mean, the more you read about 446 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 7: this guy, the more you get impressed with him. I mean, 447 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 7: he's just an outstanding individual on top of being an 448 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 7: outstanding wide receiver and defensive back. 449 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 11: Well to your point, Jeff, we were talking with him 450 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 11: and he talked about being a better corner, a better 451 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 11: wide receiver. He said he was really more focused on 452 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 11: being a better husband, which I thought was a great 453 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 11: line for him. 454 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 2: He's married to his high school sweetheart. 455 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 11: You probably saw the story in the Athletic that he 456 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 11: loves to bass fish is a very. 457 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 2: Competitive bass fisherman. 458 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 11: He's just a really good guy and has a great 459 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 11: head on his Shoulders. He was asked about the father 460 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 11: who's under house arrest or a confinement of some sort, 461 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 11: being allowed to come to the draft, and he said, 462 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 11: the only thing I can say is it's a blessing 463 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 11: to know that my dad's going to get a share 464 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 11: this night with me. Just a really grounded guy. And 465 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 11: I guess I was surprised Jay, Jeff and JP because 466 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 11: you know he's around Dion Sanders. You just would figure 467 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 11: he'd be this flamboyant character, two way player, the best 468 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 11: player in the draft. 469 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 2: No way. 470 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 11: I mean, he was humble, he was confident, but he 471 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 11: was just a normal guy man. If they would make 472 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 11: a move up for him, I'd be really excited about that. 473 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 2: And listen, if they take genty at five. 474 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 11: He was a real million megawatts smile, carried on a 475 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 11: great conversation, could just effortlessly move between reporters and questions. 476 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:49,919 Speaker 11: And a young man came up and wanted to take 477 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 11: a picture, and he said, hold on, and he stepped out. 478 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 11: These guys that the Jaguars are considering at the top 479 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 11: of the draft, or I should say, are reportedly considering 480 00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 11: at the top of the draft, our first class human 481 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 11: beings from my limited interaction with them yesterday at the 482 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 11: Play sixty events. 483 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 7: Brian, one of the things that's kind of been newsworthy 484 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 7: about the first round picks that potentially will be picked 485 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 7: tonight is that the number kind of dwindled a little bit. 486 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 7: I think the NFL started out with the hopes of 487 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 7: getting thirty players maybe there, and I think the numbers 488 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 7: down to about fifteen. So you probably got an opportunity 489 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 7: to talk to everyone that was there. 490 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 11: Well, listen, I was on my way to talking to 491 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 11: everyone and all of a sudden it started raining and 492 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 11: we had to go run in for the car, So 493 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 11: I only. 494 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 2: Got to talk to those few guys. 495 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 11: But you know, there was only what offensive lineman, Will Campbell, 496 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 11: there were a few defensive linemen. They're just this has 497 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 11: become the draft has become a spread out affair, and 498 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,719 Speaker 11: guys throw their own parties and have their own, you know, 499 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 11: YouTube channels lined up, and so you don't have that 500 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 11: centralization they had when you were drafted and everybody was 501 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 11: in New York. There are some rumblings around here that 502 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 11: in future years Bill work to get a couple of 503 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 11: the big names from the second round on for Friday night, 504 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 11: so that They've got more players here, but more and 505 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 11: more of the top players. Although again the top players, 506 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 11: the big three that you've talked about, Hunter, Carter, and 507 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 11: Genty are all here. Cam Ward is here, Will Campbell 508 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 11: is here. There are some big names here, but there's 509 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 11: just not many of them. 510 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 7: And you can tell that the Green Bay locals don't 511 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 7: have much much experience with TV, Brian. They're all dancing 512 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,719 Speaker 7: around behind you in the background. 513 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 11: Listen, I told you the guy came by earlier and 514 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 11: I thought he was gonna knock me over. 515 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 2: He wanted to get in front of the camera so bad. 516 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 11: I've never felt that way, but I'm like, you know 517 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 11: where there's a sniper on the roof. 518 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 2: I'm looking at him right now, and I want to. 519 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 11: Just do one of these. You got my back because 520 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 11: I can't see what's going on behind me. 521 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 7: Don't keep pointing up there. 522 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 8: Just stop the pointing up there. 523 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 2: Bright Oh god, I don't want his attention to either. Listen. 524 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 11: Overall this is this is a great environment. They have 525 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 11: so much here, and you know, the Jaguars haven't played 526 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 11: a regular game. They were here in twenty twenty logs, 527 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 11: but we were traveling back then. This place has changed 528 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 11: so dramatically since twenty twelve when Plaine Gabbert had his 529 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 11: I think his only three hundred yard passing day as 530 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 11: a Jaguars quarterback. I mean, there's so much that's been 531 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,159 Speaker 11: built up around her. Title town is an office complex 532 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 11: with condos and all sorts of recreational opportunities. There's more 533 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 11: restaurants and hotels around here. Not four seasons hotels Hampton 534 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 11: in right, but there's there's a lot around. 535 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 2: Here these days, all right, Brian, So it's a cool place. 536 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:40,959 Speaker 7: Last question for me, because you know when we were 537 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 7: in Steven's Pointless Consint going way back to the Jaguars 538 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 7: first training camp. Ever, Okay, one of the must that 539 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 7: you absolutely had to do when you were in Wisconsin, 540 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 7: especially around Green Bay, you had to have an order 541 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 7: of kurds and a pitcher or a glass frosty mug 542 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 7: of Point beer. Have you that yet? 543 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 2: Yep. 544 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 11: I will never touch a cheese curd. I don't care 545 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,199 Speaker 11: who orders it. I will never ever touch it, smell it, 546 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 11: taste it. But the Point beer might have been on 547 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 11: tap last night, and I have fond memories of our 548 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 11: nearly six weeks in Steven's Point Wisconsin. For those of 549 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 11: us that were on staff that showed up a little 550 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 11: earlier than the union representative who refused to show up 551 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 11: one day early. 552 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 2: Oh that was you. No, But listen, lots of great memories. 553 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 11: But you know what's funny is is nobody here remembers 554 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 11: the Cheese League. It's gone. It was that brief moment 555 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 11: with the Bears and the Chiefs and the Saints, and hey, 556 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 11: thanks appreciate your participation in our show. 557 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 2: Are you right? 558 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 11: You see the crap I'm dealing with out here, But listen, 559 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 11: I'll take it for the team for happy hour. 560 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 5: Fantastic. 561 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 4: We just do the rest of the show like this 562 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 4: Green Bay. 563 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 2: Hey, listen, who do you want me to talk to? 564 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 5: Right? 565 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 2: The next guy that comes by, the next guy that 566 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 2: comes he's gonna get it. 567 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:04,479 Speaker 1: All right. 568 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 4: Final thought. 569 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 8: We'll get you out of here before you get heckled anymore. 570 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 2: Who do you want? 571 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 5: Who do you think to go? 572 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 2: By the way, some of the wacky weed is, oh 573 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 2: who do I want? 574 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 11: There's there's a guy over here who's burning something he 575 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 11: shouldn't be burning.

Obviously, we 655 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 10: some version of a controlled environment, knowing that there's only 656 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 10: four selections ahead of us, and beyond that, I think 657 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 10: what we'll lean into is a lot of the same 658 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 10: things that I think we've preached over the last eight weeks, 659 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 10: and really that's about focusing on players who are intangibly rich, 660 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 10: and so that'll be top of mind at each pickpoint, 661 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 10: and really the decisions that we'll make with each of 662 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 10: the nine picks that lie beyond tonight, we'll be sure 663 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 10: to lean into that and keep that as our north star. 664 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 8: We all see rumors. 665 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 3: Do you follow the TV coverage of draft and all 666 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 3: the rumors Draft Day things that may or may not happen, 667 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 3: And how busy has. 668 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 8: It been on the phones with the Jaguars. 669 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 10: Well, yeah, I think I've got a pulse for what 670 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 10: has seemingly been pushed out, which seems like every single 671 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 10: scenario on planet Earth, which is exciting, entertaining. I mean, 672 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 10: that's the business that we're in, and I think at 673 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 10: pick number five we'll see some fireworks. 674 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 5: One way or another. 675 00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 8: James, you luck to you appreciate the time. 676 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 10: I appreciate it as well. 677 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 3: Game on, game on logs, James Gladstone, the general manager 678 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 3: could see some fireworks one way or another. 679 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 4: That's what you like to hear. 680 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 7: That's that killer mentality that Tony Boselli was talking about 681 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 7: here a little bit ago. You know, I love listening 682 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 7: to him talk very seamless. I mean, he should have 683 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 7: considered a job in broadcasting, right. I mean, he's just something. 684 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 7: He's quick on his feet, he's very direct and doesn't 685 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 7: have any kind of a catchword to kind of gather 686 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 7: a thought. I mean, he's just impressed. And look, part 687 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 7: of being a leader also is being a great communicator, 688 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 7: and and Tony's dead on the money about that aspect 689 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 7: of him. It's fun to watch. 690 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 3: There is a fascinating article in The Athletic that just 691 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 3: came out recently about his rise through the RAMS organization 692 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 3: and now his step forward as a general manager and 693 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 3: some of the processes he's used to get. 694 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 8: To this point. 695 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 3: That's kind of what I was trying to get out 696 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 3: of there a little bit was some of the behind 697 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 3: the scenes data things that he'll use now in the 698 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,239 Speaker 3: past year, we've seen a draft room with you know, 699 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 3: thirty people in there and ringing the room and all that. 700 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 3: I don't know if we'll have that this year with 701 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 3: James and he'll have access to people close by, it's 702 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 3: going to be a select few that are actually right there. 703 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it kind of focuses the room. I 704 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 7: think in a lot of different ways. I would probably 705 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 7: do something somewhere if I were ever in James's shoes, 706 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 7: just because you don't want to have a whole lot 707 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 7: of things that are moving parts, etc. But everything he's 708 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 7: done to date has been very impressive so far. But 709 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 7: this day, today is the start of the lifeblood of 710 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 7: this franchise. The reality is is that the organization has 711 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 7: not drafted very well in the past, and that's a fact, 712 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 7: and the fact is shown in the record that this 713 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 7: team has had and that needs to change. And how 714 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 7: it changes is that you bring better players into the organization. 715 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 7: James Gladstone is the key to this whole thing. He 716 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 7: lives the key to this whole success of this organization 717 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 7: going forward, and it starts today with him. It started 718 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 7: in free agency a little bit, but this is the meat, 719 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 7: and this is the potatoes of any organization today, tomorrow 720 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 7: and the next day. 721 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,720 Speaker 3: It's pretty fascinating that you come in as a new GM, 722 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 3: but you inherit the scouting staff you don't bring. There's 723 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,280 Speaker 3: been a couple of additions, right. The big change addition 724 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,359 Speaker 3: a lot of times happens after the draft. So he's 725 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 3: inherited scouting staff and personnel staff and has from all accounts, 726 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 3: enjoyed that process. They've done a good job in figuring 727 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 3: out how he wants to communicate and work. And that's 728 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 3: got to be a difficult transition. I mean, you come 729 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 3: in and all of a sudden the staff's already in place. 730 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, just I mean for me personally, I 731 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 7: would probably have a very difficult kind of time of 732 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 7: trusting people, right, I mean, because look, there's a lot 733 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 7: of holdovers from the Trent Ball general manager era. And 734 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 7: you know, from what I understand, James has been very 735 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,760 Speaker 7: open and honest and has worked with everybody and that's 736 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,399 Speaker 7: that's amazing. But I'm sure, just like anybody else would 737 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 7: do that, there will be changes within the staff in 738 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 7: and around James Gladstone's room, and as it should be, 739 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 7: because as a general manager, you want to make sure 740 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 7: that you have voices that you trust and also ears 741 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 7: that you can trust. 742 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 3: Tonight, it's the first round of the twenty twenty five 743 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 3: NFL Drafts at eight o'clock start time, and we will 744 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 3: come back in this moment. We'll have John Oser, Jaguars 745 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 3: dot Com senior writer. He'll join us on set and 746 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 3: we're gonna make some picks. 747 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 7: We kind of already have logs, haven't we. 748 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 4: We kind of have I'm sticking with my Okay, well, 749 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:48,880 Speaker 4: well don't ruin it now. We'll come back if you've. 750 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,240 Speaker 7: Just joined us logs. 751 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,399 Speaker 3: Is gonna make another pick, but it's probably the same pick. 752 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 4: That is this Jaguars happy. 753 00:35:55,360 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 9: Hour anytime somebody's excelling on the level the highest level 754 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 9: in the football league, for sure. But I also think 755 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 9: we can't overlook, you know, also guys in you know, 756 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 9: college football doing amazing things. Also in the NFL, there's 757 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 9: a lot of other greer running backs. Now, is he 758 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 9: the number one guy leading that? 759 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 8: For sure? Yeah? 760 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:29,720 Speaker 3: That is Ashton Gent, the running back from Boise State 761 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 3: and the Heisman Trophy runner up last year, only a 762 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 3: little over two hundred points behind Travis Hunter and the 763 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 3: Heisman voting massive season a year ago, five foot eight 764 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 3: to eleven, tough to tackle. We'll see if he's there 765 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 3: at five, if he's the picker or not. JP, Shadwick, 766 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 3: Jeff Logan, John Osier joining us in the studio. 767 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 12: Now, Hi, John, I like the dramatic pause there. Yeah. Well, 768 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 12: when you're bringing me in said, uh, it's draft night. 769 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,919 Speaker 12: I mean it's it's Uh, We've been through a lot 770 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 12: of these, and I think it's James Gladstone said a 771 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 12: couple of weeks ago. Uh, when you're picking number five 772 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 12: and it's the first pick of a new regime, Uh, 773 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 12: it's a tone center. So this is a big night. 774 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 12: And I think over all, Jeff, it's a big weekend 775 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 12: for me to see sort of what a James Gladstone 776 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 12: draft looks like. He does things differently. I'm curiously what 777 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 12: this looks like by the end of Saturday. 778 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, and I think all three days are really tone setters. 779 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 7: I mean, look, you're you're adding ten. You know that's 780 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 7: the number you're at now, you know, prospects to your roster. 781 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 7: And by the way, JP, you kind of short changed 782 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 7: Jenny a little bit. Was a five, nine, two fifteen, 783 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 7: you know, and when you're five foot nine, okay, and 784 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 7: you get called to be five foot eight that that that. 785 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 8: First five and a half. 786 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's he's five five foot eight and a half. Oh, 787 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 7: you're rounding up. 788 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 3: Okay, but a round up okay's not a round up 789 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 3: first okay. 790 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 7: But I will say just real quick about Jenny watching 791 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 7: the film with a guy, it's amazing to watch him 792 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 7: and how powerful he is. And the one area that 793 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 7: the Jacksonville Jaguars have great history with is the running 794 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 7: back position. Fred Taylor, Maurice Jones, Drew And how fitting 795 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 7: would it be to have a guy like Jenny to 796 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 7: follow up from those two. 797 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 3: Well, if it's at five, he's going to be at 798 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,399 Speaker 3: that level, right to be a successful pick. 799 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 12: John, Yeah, it's making a mistake if you take a 800 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 12: running back at five. I said, I called this morning. 801 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 12: I called Leonard Frend you know, a mistake pick. And 802 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 12: I like Leonard. But when you take a guy four 803 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 12: and he's not a franchised, defining guy, all pro guy 804 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 12: at that position, then it didn't work. So if you're 805 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:49,800 Speaker 12: going to take that position that high, really any position 806 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 12: that I five, but especially running back, when you're going 807 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 12: there and saying okay, it's maybe a five or six 808 00:38:54,960 --> 00:39:02,280 Speaker 12: seven year peak person. It's got to be Derrick, Henry Saquon. 809 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 2: Barkley level production. 810 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:08,839 Speaker 12: Ap that's what you're expecting. So that's you know, whether 811 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 12: they say it or not tonight, if you take a 812 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 12: running back in five, that's what you're thinking is gonna be. 813 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 7: The position has been devalued, I mean over the years, 814 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 7: and people are saying, well, how can you can't use 815 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 7: high draft capital anymore to draft a running back? But 816 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 7: if you listen to Liam Cohene talking about helping Trevor out, 817 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 7: what's the one thing that he's talked about all off season? 818 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 7: Getting a running game and better up front around them? 819 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,479 Speaker 7: And look, I want to get a better running game. 820 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 7: Bam Jenny. 821 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 2: Right now. 822 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 7: Number two gives you an instant running game. I don't 823 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 7: think there's any doubt on that. 824 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 12: And the position has been devalued, and that's a big theme. 825 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 12: It's always a big pre pre draft theme. Now hall 826 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 12: of famers haven't been devalued, so you're thinking, and I 827 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 12: say hall of famers, I mean with Derek Henry, the 828 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 12: guys we just mentioned, Henry Saquon Barkley, those are Hall 829 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 12: of Fame level talent. Fred Taylor Hall of Fame level talent. 830 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 12: That level of talent at that position hasn't been the value, 831 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 12: So that would be the counter argument to the devalued position. 832 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 7: Well, and it's kind of interesting to see all of 833 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 7: the draft talk kind of over the last six weeks 834 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 7: and where it's been with Jenny. I mean, there were 835 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 7: so many different people that were forecasting him going to 836 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 7: Chicago and then all of a sudden here recently now 837 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 7: some people are picking that he may come here to 838 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 7: the Jacksonville Jaguars. And it's interesting too because if you 839 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 7: look at what is in what's the common theme with 840 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 7: Chicago and the Jaguars. They have a very young quarterback 841 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,319 Speaker 7: that really hasn't shown that he's going to be an 842 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 7: elite player yet, and so both teams may be looking 843 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,919 Speaker 7: to get a running back to help out these young quarterbacks, 844 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 7: and he's a really good one. I said this to 845 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 7: you JP and Brian Sexton, I think last week, and 846 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 7: I said that, you know, there's three great players in 847 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:04,359 Speaker 7: this draft, and I'm just talking just from watching film 848 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 7: that are head and shoulders above everybody. They are, and 849 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 7: that's Jenny, Travis Hunter, and Abdul Carter. Those three guys 850 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 7: are just ridiculously at high levels. I mean, they're so 851 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 7: separate from everybody else and at the top, and I 852 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 7: don't cam Ward's not even in that category, not even close. 853 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 7: But those three guys I think are just And the 854 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 7: future may say that there's more than just those three, 855 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 7: and maybe even not one of those three, but I 856 00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,719 Speaker 7: think right now, in my opinion watching the film, those 857 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 7: three guys are it. 858 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 12: And when people ask to a people, when is it 859 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 12: okay to take it back in the top five, it's 860 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 12: when what Jeff said is true. Meaning if that back 861 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 12: is one of three great players in the draft, and 862 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,799 Speaker 12: there's another quarterback in there and maybe some team things 863 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 12: offensive lineman, that's the scenario where it's okay because any 864 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 12: GM you know, why did the Eagles win the Super 865 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 12: Bowl at year because they had a bunch of players 866 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 12: who were really really really good. How many really really 867 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,799 Speaker 12: really good players the Jaguars have right now, BTJ and 868 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 12: a couple you know, So if you're adding that to 869 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 12: your group, then nets when top five running back makes sense? 870 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 3: John Ozier with us it is Jaguars happy hour, JP 871 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,919 Speaker 3: Shatter because Jeff Loghman just a few minutes to go here. 872 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 3: This is the latest that we've been to an NFL 873 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 3: draft where every team has their original pick in the draft. 874 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 3: I think it was ninety three when the Chiefs and 875 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 3: the Niners made the deal for Joe Montana and traded 876 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 3: picks and such just a few days before the draft. 877 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 3: That was previously the latest it had gone. But all 878 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 3: even the years before this draft, everybody still has their picks. 879 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 3: It's an oddity. We'll see how long it lasts. I 880 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 3: guess tonight it feels like, you know, with with the 881 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 3: top four kind of there, the Jaguars might be that 882 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:58,760 Speaker 3: fulcrum point in this first round tonight. 883 00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:02,799 Speaker 12: Well, it's good that you said the thing about the 884 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,839 Speaker 12: trades now, because I think by eight forty five or so, yeah, oh, 885 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 12: it's gonna be. I think it'll be a lot of 886 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 12: trades once it starts. I think you got a little 887 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:14,839 Speaker 12: momentum Jeff of Okay, Well, once teams hadn't traded by 888 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,439 Speaker 12: a couple of weeks ago, then you wait and see 889 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 12: what Tennessee does, and then other teams can start talking 890 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 12: about it. My guess is there's been a lot of 891 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,280 Speaker 12: calls around the league where the button's ready to be pushed. 892 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:27,440 Speaker 12: As soon as you're on the clock, So I think 893 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 12: that would change. 894 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 7: Yeah, a lot of groundwork probably already been done. But 895 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 7: John's right. I think once once cam Ward goes number 896 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 7: one to Tennessee, then I think then the phones are 897 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 7: going to start ringing after the top five happened, because 898 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,759 Speaker 7: the next two quarterbacks, which is obviously going to be 899 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 7: a big part of that conversation about who trades and 900 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:50,359 Speaker 7: who doesn't. Where those guys end up fitting. I think 901 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,319 Speaker 7: it's gonna be very interesting because you know, for a 902 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 7: long time people just thought that the trade was going 903 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,360 Speaker 7: to be mainly around the Sheder Sanders. But Jackson Dart 904 00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,919 Speaker 7: is now in the conversation as to moving up into 905 00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 7: the top half of the first round, which could make 906 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:04,320 Speaker 7: that even more interesting. 907 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,919 Speaker 12: Quarterbacks always figured out a way to get up there. 908 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 4: It's fascinating how that works. 909 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,320 Speaker 3: I mean, that's all the media we've been seeing the 910 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 3: last couple of days is on Jackson dark But I mean, 911 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 3: I mean, I guess that boards have had him up 912 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,920 Speaker 3: there all the whole time, Like they don't change their boards. 913 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 8: Just leave the process. 914 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 12: That's a huge isnamic in the draft too, is the 915 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 12: media sort of hops into this on an increasing level 916 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 12: after about the combine. So a lot of players whose 917 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 12: stock is rising, it's because a GM finally told somebody 918 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,800 Speaker 12: in the media, hey, this guy's pretty good too. Oh 919 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,239 Speaker 12: now his stock's rising exactly. And I think that's what 920 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 12: happened with Genti. Frankly, I think I think a lot 921 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 12: of NFL people knew that this kid was special. Everybody 922 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 12: assumed the back wouldn't get taken that high. So then 923 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,839 Speaker 12: once it starts sort of flushing itself out, everybody realized, oh, 924 00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 12: there's only three guys, this guy should be up there. 925 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 12: Some of that's finding out the information later. 926 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 7: And the other thing I think is going to be 927 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 7: fun to watch tonight, aside from the top of the 928 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 7: draft and the quarterbacks and Jenny and what the Jaguars do. 929 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 7: For me, just an interesting standpoint. This football team here 930 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 7: in Jacksonville's offensive lineman. Okay, so what happens in the 931 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:25,439 Speaker 7: first round with all of these tackles that are there's 932 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,800 Speaker 7: a lot of them that have a first round grade, 933 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:30,720 Speaker 7: And so I'm going to be watching this first round 934 00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 7: with an eye on what can the Jaguars do in 935 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 7: round two and who goes undrafted in Round one to 936 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,959 Speaker 7: give this football team options at a position of need, 937 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:42,720 Speaker 7: which is offensive line. 938 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 3: You always say it, You've been saying it for months. 939 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,359 Speaker 3: If you're going to rebuild the offensive line, you better 940 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:50,239 Speaker 3: start drafting offensive lineman high. 941 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 12: Yeah, And I think that's the dilemma when you're talking 942 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 12: about Jenny or you're talking about offensive skill player high. 943 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:01,880 Speaker 12: I do believe that at some point point the Eagles, 944 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 12: right all those years where they invested in it and 945 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 12: it's not a sexy pick and your fans kind of go, Okay, well, 946 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 12: it's fine, But at some point you have to sacrifice 947 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 12: some next day pop to get that on one side 948 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:18,759 Speaker 12: of the ball or the other. If you're going to 949 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 12: be a line centric team, you have start taking them early. 950 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 12: But I don't think. I don't think they're gonna be 951 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:24,840 Speaker 12: a line centric tonight. 952 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 7: And I would add one thing here that you made 953 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 7: about the Eagles, right. The Eagles have drafted so well 954 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,879 Speaker 7: over the years, and that's the key of this whole thing. 955 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 7: You've got to be able to stack good draft after 956 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 7: good draft after good draft. I'm talking consistently good drafts 957 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 7: to build a franchise. If you can do that, then 958 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:49,879 Speaker 7: you can be where the Eagles are you know? And look, 959 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 7: they're winning super Bowls without a truly truly elite quarterback. 960 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 7: I think of Passer now, he's got his great traits 961 00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 7: and special characteristics in his own right. Yes, But the talent, 962 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 7: the overall talent of that Eagles team is what has 963 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 7: carried that football team to where they are today. And 964 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 7: you hope that James Gladstone leaves this team in that 965 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:11,800 Speaker 7: direction going forward. 966 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,879 Speaker 12: In James, you trust, right, j Yes, yes we do. 967 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:18,479 Speaker 3: And that begins tonight final couple of minutes here, guys. 968 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:20,600 Speaker 4: So John, let's let's. 969 00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:20,959 Speaker 2: Get your pick. 970 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:24,360 Speaker 4: If the Jags are at five, what are they like? 971 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 12: Look, I think there's guys out of their reach at 972 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:31,279 Speaker 12: five that they love. I think Carter and Hunter, who 973 00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,960 Speaker 12: I don't think will be there at five. If they 974 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,399 Speaker 12: could get those guys, boy, I think they love them. 975 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 12: I don't know if it's going to be too expensive. 976 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 12: There's reports out there about all kinds of different things. 977 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 12: The expense to move up I just wonder about.
